I have a ATI Radeon 9500 pro card here.. My attempts to use the ATI 
drivers so far arent very good.. Tried all the patches available , but 
the driver doesnt even compile on FC2t1. As I dont need 3D and my card 
is recognized by X, I simply dropped the ATI drivers... Maybe when 
there's a final distro with the 2.6 kernel , the guys from ATI will 
finally release a driver that works...

What is the graphic card of this notebook? Maybe there's the chance that 
it will work under other driver, but only in 2D...
